[LOGGED 2652] ETD and ETA

[boctal]

When entering an ETD in the newest release version, the ETA updates correctly in FPLN Progress but is not updating the time on the MFD with "ON" selected. I have included a screenshot with an example.

Thanks, before I file this would you expect the ETAs shown on the MFD window and data to also reflect the off time? In your screenshot you have ETA 1549 with an ETD of 1600 - is this also an issue? (I'd have to look up how the FMS handles predictions with the ETD specified).

I’m assuming you’re talking about the ETA at the departure runway in both the MFD and FPLN Progress? I’m honestly not sure about that being updated with an ETD entered. Probably need to verify that  

On sort of the same note, pretty sure Toto knows about it, but entering an EFC in a hold also doesn’t update the ETA.

Using an old FMS trainer for the Proline 4, it does indeed update the ETA at the runway with an ETD entered, so I’d assume the same would be true for the Proline 21 Advanced. I also double checked entering a hold EFC in the FMS trainer and it updated the ETA as well.
